RESUMO

The study of solar radiation penetration in aquatic environment was developed in four parts. The first one, directed to solar radiation attenuation in the water column, interference factors and their inter-relations were discussed. In this sense, a penetration comparison of the solar radiation in natural and artificial continental ecosystems was carried out, analyzing differences and similarities. The second part of this work consisted of a comparative study of underwater solar radiation in the entire reservoir. The comparison was done between reservoirs that are near to one another, but with marked differences in use and occupation within the regions where they are located. In the third part, two resources of great utilization in obtaining immediate response from the aquatic environment, from an optical point of view of the impacts experienced, were presented. The first resort was the spectrogram determination of solar radiation, which indicated the underwater solar radiation attenuation in the active photosynthetic range (400 nm - 700 nm). The other resort was the superficial water absorption spectrum, which allowed establishing the “Water Spectral Absorption Index”, I.A.E.A. that easily makes possible detection of accurate sources of pollution and contamination. The fourth and last part proposed to develop an apparatus from the construction of an underwater hydrophotometer (Model 268 WA 310 GM MFG &Instrument Corp. Bronx N.Y. 10451), where the photoconductor detector was adapted and introduced (PIN - 250DP) substituting the previously damaged photocells. During field work, this apparatus was tested and comparison was performed with data obtained from Quanta-meter LI-COR (LI - 185A), also used in this work.
